Would it be possible for my prop, spline, lock nut etc (all the prop components) to come off without human intervention. The prop was on my 40 HP when we launched for the first time this year.As soon as I started the motor the boat wouldn't move because (I soon discovered) my prop and related components were missing. My buddy is quite sure the prop was on the engine when we launched, it must have come off when I put the transmission in gear. Could something have happened over the winter to cause this or would someone have to losen/remove parts? I have my suspicion but don't want to pursue the issue if it might haven just come off by accident.
